THANK YOU MINERS NATION!
miners nation,
From the bottom of our hearts, thank you for such an incredible year!
As our inaugural season comes to a close, we find ourselves overwhelmed with gratitude. What started as a dream has become something real, powerful, and unforgettable.
We knew building a team from the ground up wouldn’t be easy. But we also knew we weren’t doing it alone. From day one, you stood by us in the heat, the rain, the long drives, and the late nights. You packed the stands. You wore the colors. You made noise. You believed in us before we had a single win on the board.
This season wasn’t just about football. It was about building a family, a legacy, and a community that’s here to stay. Together, we laid the foundation brick by brick. And together, we’ve already accomplished so much!
But what means the most isn’t what’s on the scoreboard, it’s what’s in the stands, on the sidelines, and behind the scenes. It’s the volunteers, the sponsors, the coaches, the players, and every single fan who yelled until they lost their voice. It’s the kids wearing Miners gear around town. It’s the pride we all feel when we say we are the Dubuque Miners.
This is just the beginning.
We’re honored. We’re humbled. And we’re more fired up than ever for what’s next. So stay tuned for off season announcements that we look forward to sharing with you all!
With all our gratitude,
— The Dubuque Miners Organization
